Blog: Happy New Year 2025!

and...

Let's remember all exciting features we've added throughout the year:

Online reader

We've been working hard to improve the Reader, adding features like saving your reading position, a two-page switch, and quote highlighting. In addition, we've announced our new Litera Reader project where you can upload any of your books and read them without restrictions. Our plans include adding even more useful features to further enhance your reading experience.

Notification center

To ensure you don't miss any events related to your account, we've introduced a new feature — a notification center: a small bell in the top right corner. This new feature groups all notifications related to Z-Alerts, book requests, comments on booklists, new books, and more.

Dark mode

We've successfully implemented a dark mode on our website for the browser version. This new feature will make your browsing experience more convenient and enjoyable. We plan to introduce the same feature to our desktop application soon!

New user profile

We've updated the way our website displays User Profiles to make it more social. Over the past year, we've made significant improvements, including the addition of avatars and the ability to customize your background and profile information. By browsing through other profiles, you can easily find like-minded users or even make new friends based on their booklists or comments.

Litera Library

The Litera Library is a new global paper book project that now has its own website. If you have books that are gathering dust on your shelves, you can give them new life! Simply send them to our LITERA Point, and one day, someone will be able to enjoy them at their own place. Want to know more about it?

Recommendation system

We've developed our own technology find similar texts across millions of books and integrated it into our recommendation system. Recommendations now take into account the user's behaviour and advanced text-comparison technology, providing accurate and diverse suggestions. Moreover, the "Personal Recommendations" were enhanced on the main page and elsewhere by implementing infinite feeds.

Books moderation

Let's not forget our moderators, who spend endless hours checking and reviewing the books uploaded to our website. Their work is much appreciated, and we would like to meet the most active of them and express our gratitude for their dedication!
